Predicting the current and future global distribution of the invasive freshwater hydrozoan Craspedacusta sowerbii
Abstract The freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii is one of the most widespread invasive species, but its global distribution remains uncertain due to ephemeral appearances and general lack of information in various aquatic environments. The aim of this study was to map current and future dis...
